Chapter 18 The fortune of White Lotus Town astonishes all the saints!
Upon seeing the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus appear before him, even the Tongtian Sect Leader was stunned into silence.
"A twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus... I never imagined it would be in your hands, my disciple!"
The Master of Heaven's expression was complex.
When the Jie Sect was founded, there was a deficiency in its members. In order to find a treasure that could suppress the destiny of the sect, he searched high and low, but fate played a trick on him, and he never found anything.
Who would have thought that this treasure would be found by his own disciple by sheer chance?
"My disciple, do you truly intend to offer this twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus to your master?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader spoke, his expression becoming increasingly complex.
It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.
This twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus was a lifeline for the beleaguered Jie Sect at that time, no, it might even be their last lifeline.
After all, for a great sect or sage, fortune is the most fundamental thing.
Zhao Gongming smiled slightly and said seriously, "In my hands, this treasure is nothing more than a defensive artifact."
Rather than letting treasures gather dust, it's better to make the most of them. Besides, as a direct disciple of the Jie Sect, my honor and my loss are intertwined; why be so particular about it?
These words were sincere and heartfelt, deeply moving the Tongtian Sect Leader. He was right; the Zhao Gongming before him was indeed the last glimmer of hope for the Jie Sect.
The Master of the Heavens said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, I will accept this treasure. If the Jie Sect can overcome this calamity, I will never forget your contribution of offering this treasure!"
Having said that, he no longer hesitated and directly took the Twelfth-Grade Pure World White Lotus into his hand. As the Saint's power continuously flowed into it, the forty-eight restrictions within were quickly and completely refined by the Tongtian Sect Master. The next moment, the Pure World White Lotus, dazzling beyond imagination, bloomed from Biyou Palace. Its terrifying purifying power even melted away the calamity-inducing aura surrounding the entire Jin'ao Island like snow under the sun in an instant.
This scene left Zhao Gongming speechless. The same treasure, in the hands of a sage, displayed vastly different power compared to his own.
Clearly, while magical treasures are valuable in the primordial world, one's own cultivation level is fundamental. Otherwise, even if he were to find a supreme treasure, he would likely find it difficult to unleash its full power.
Not only Zhao Gongming, but also countless cultivators and beings on the East Sea were alarmed as the Pure World White Lotus soared into the sky.
Everyone stared in astonishment at the blinding white light emanating from Biyou Palace, instinctively sensing a terrifying purifying power.
The disciples of the Jie Sect, burdened by karma, screamed in agony amidst the blinding white light, their bodies emitting a hissing sound as if branded with a hot iron, their very bodies radiating black smoke.
"It seems my elder brother hasn't left yet. Could this commotion be related to him?"
Outside Biyou Palace, the Three Immortals did not see Zhao Gongming's whereabouts, and their hearts were filled with speculation and worry.
"Junior Brother Gongming, it seems you haven't left Biyou Palace. Why did you cause such a commotion?"
Could it be that Master is imparting some special supernatural power to Junior Brother Gongming?
Duobao Daoist, the chief disciple of the Jie Sect, looked into Biyou Palace with a smile still on his face, but there was a dark look in the depths of his eyes.
"That's certainly possible. It seems Master thinks highly of Senior Brother Gongming!" The straightforward and frank Guiling Shengmu said, causing Duobao's smile to freeze involuntarily.
...............
The direct disciples of the Jie Sect discussed it amongst themselves, expressing both envy and some doubt.
It is unknown what kind of supernatural power the Sage Tongtian in Biyou Palace imparted to Zhao Gongming, that he possessed such extraordinary phenomena and might.
At this moment, Tongtian Sect Leader looked at the Twelve-Petaled Pure World White Lotus that he had completely refined in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "Back then, I searched all over the prehistoric world but could not find a treasure to suppress the fortune of the Jie Sect. I thought that the fortune of my Jie Sect could not be perfectly suppressed. Such is the will of Heaven, and even a saint cannot defy it!"
However, the Great Dao is fifty, and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine; there is always a glimmer of hope!
Unexpectedly, this glimmer of hope has fallen upon you, my disciple!
Zhao Gongming humbly replied, "It is because our Jie Sect's destiny has not yet run its course that we are destined to possess this treasure!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader smiled, finding his personally taught disciple increasingly pleasing to the eye. He offered a white lotus, displaying a calm and composed demeanor, free from arrogance or impatience.
Why didn't he discover such a promising talent before?
Of course, it's not too late to start training them now.
His most trusted disciple, Daoist Duobao, was well-versed in many things and possessed supernatural abilities such as the Spirit Treasure Combination Technique. However, in the eyes of the sage, quantity is not as important as quality. Of the three thousand Great Daos, each can lead to the attainment of Hunyuan. As long as one can fully comprehend one of them, one can attain the supreme Great Dao. Moreover, Duobao's Dao heart was not firm. In fact, in the eyes of the Tongtian Sect Master, Duobao's character was somewhat 'weak'.
As for the Holy Mother Wudang, the Holy Mother Jinling, the Holy Mother Guiling, and the Three Immortals, each has her shortcomings and is not suitable to lead a sect.
These thoughts flashed through the mind of the Tongtian Sect Leader. Looking at the twelve-petaled Pure World White Lotus in his hand, he immediately stopped hesitating and, in a flash, arrived at Biyou Palace.
Looking out, the Jiejiao Qi Canal flows faintly over Jin'ao Island, but it is almost dry and is constantly flowing away.
With countless immortals paying homage, the Jie Sect was undoubtedly the most powerful of the four Xuanmen sects in terms of the number of disciples and the scale of its fortune. However, its decline was also the fastest among the four Xuanmen sects.
Now, it's time to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the Jie Sect.
"I am Tongtian, and today I proclaim to the Primordial Heavenly Dao that the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus will be used to suppress the fortune of the Jie Sect. The Heavenly Dao bears witness, and the fortune of the Jie Sect will be forever secure!"
Before the Tongtian Sect Leader stood the twelve-petaled Pure World White Lotus, which radiated boundless light. As he proclaimed to the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World, the ever-flowing River of Intercepting Sect's fortune finally stabilized completely. At the same time, as the Tongtian Sect Leader's proclamation resounded throughout the Primordial World, all the Heavenly Dao Saints and numerous great supernatural beings were alarmed.
"What? Tongtian has found a treasure to suppress destiny? This?!"
In the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun sensed something and suddenly opened his eyes. After seeing that the fortune of the Jie Sect was completely stabilized, his expression changed abruptly.
Although the Investiture of the Gods was aimed at the disciples of the four major sects of Xuanmen, in essence it was the struggle between the Chan and Jie sects.
in other words.
In this great calamity, the opponent of the Chan Sect is the Jie Sect. As long as the ten thousand immortals of the Jie Sect fill the Investiture of the Gods, the Jade Void Golden Immortals under his command will naturally be able to survive and escape the calamity.
Therefore, he had already begun planning before the Great Tribulation, and he was absolutely confident in his abilities.
After all, the Jie Sect's fortune is flawed and constantly dwindling, which is its most fatal problem. It is entirely possible that it will become the target of the four sects.
But now, the Tongtian Sect Leader has actually found the Twelfth Grade Pure World White Lotus, which perfectly suppressed the Jie Sect's fortune and completely filled this weakness of the Jie Sect!
Thinking of this, the expression on Yuanshi Tianzun's face turned somewhat ugly.
